CholesterolBiotix is a unique formulation containing three natural-based cholesterol-lowering ingredients: plant sterols (phytosterols); red yeast rice extract (monascus purpureous), and lactobacilli probiotic bacteria. All three ingredients work in different ways to help support cholesterol levels naturally. Plant sterols inhibit the intestinal absorption of cholesterol; red yeast rice extract (containing monacolin-k) reduces the production of cholesterol by the body; and lactobacilli bacteria can remove cholesterol from the body. The formulation also includes CoQ10, which is recommended for patients on cholesterol lowering statins, such as monacolin-k contained in red yeast rice extract.
